A missing hiker was found unhurt off Highway 330 in the San Bernardino Mountains late Monday night, five hours after his injured girlfriend was hoisted out by helicopter.

The male hiker, in his 60s, was found at 10:45 p.m. about two miles from Live Oak near City Creek, San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Cindy Bachman said. He was not injured.

His girlfriend, Velinda Schmid, 45, of Wilmington, had fallen 100 feet in a wooded area, according to a Sheriff’s Department news release. She suffered neck, back and hip injuries.

Bachman said the man went in search of help. In the meantime, rescuers located Schmid and lifted her out by helicopter at 5:30 p.m. and took her to an area hospital, where she was treated and released.

Manny A. Ortiz, 27, of Whittier, said he called authorities about 10:15 Monday night and reported hearing a man yelling for help.

Ortiz and two pregnant women were driving home from a visit to Big Bear Lake when they stopped at a turnout to have a snack.

“I could hear somebody yelling ‘Help!’” Ortiz said in a telephone interview. “We called the police and sat down and waited.”

Ortiz said he could not see the man, but they conversed several times.

“He said he was stuck and couldn’t move, but he wasn’t injured,” Ortiz said.

A helicopter arrived and shined a light down on the stranded hiker, he said.

According to the news release, the helicopter crew directed ground searchers to the hiker.
